Description of the hob

INSTALLATION

Any gas installation must be carried out by a registered competent person,

and in accordance with existing rules and regulations.

The relevant instructions are to be found in the second section of this manual.

Please, ensure that, once the hob is installed, it is easily accessible for the engineer in

the event of a breakdown.

WHEN THE HOB IS FIRST INSTALLED

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials,

which were put on in the factory.

The manufacturer will not accept liability, should the above instructions

or any of the other safety instructions incorporated in this book be ignored.

1. Hob Top

2. Semi-rapid Burners

3. Auxiliary Burner

4. Triple Crown Burner

5. Control knob for front left burner (semi-rapid)

6. Control knob for back left burner (semi-rapid)

7. Control knob for central burner (triple crown)

8. Control knob for back right burner(semi-rapid)

9. Control knob for front right burner (auxiliary)

Operation

Hob burner control knobs

The symbols on the knobs mean:

= no gas supply

= maximum gas supply

= minimum gas supply

For easier lighting, proceed before

putting a pan on the pan support.

Lighting the burners

To light a burner, turn the relevant

knob anticlockwise to maximum position

( ) and push down the knob to ignite.

After lighting the flame, keep the knob

pushed down for about 5 seconds. This will

allow the "thermocouple" (Fig. 1 - D) to be

heated and the safety device to be switched

off, otherwise the gas supply would be

interrupted. Then, check the flame is regular

and adjust it as required.

If you cannot light the flame even after

several attempts, check the "cap" (Fig. 1 - A)

and “crown” (Fig. 1 - B) are in the correct

position.

In the absence of electricity, ignition can

occur without the electrical device; in this

case approach the burner with a flame, push

the relevant knob down and turn it

counterclockwise until it reaches the

"maximum" position.

To switch off burners

To put the flame out, turn the knob to the

symbol ( ).

Take care when frying food in hot oil

or fat, as the overheated splashes

could easily ignite.

When switching on the mains, after

installation or a power cut, it is quite

normal for the spark generator to be

activated automatically.

)

Do not keep the control knob pressed

for more than 15 seconds.

If the burner does not light even after

15 seconds, release the control knob,

turn it the "off" position and wait for at

least one minute before trying to light

the burner again.

If the burner accidentally goes out,

turn the control knob to the "off"

position and wait for at least 1 minute

before trying to light the burner again.

Each control knob is equipped with a

pilot light which gradually lights up

according to the heat level that you

select with the control knob.

Once the hob has been installed, it is important to remove any protective materials,

which were put on in the factory.

As soon as a liquid starts boiling, turn down the flame so that it will barely keep the

liquid simmering.

Use only pans or pots with flat bottom.

If you use a saucepan which is smaller than the recommended size, the flame

will spread beyond the bottom of the vessel, causing the handle to overheat.

Carefully supervise cooking with fat or oil, since these types of foodstuff can result

in a fire, if over-heated.

The stainless steel can become tarnished if excessively heated. Therefore

prolonged cooking with potstones, earthenware pans or cast-iron plates is

inadvisable. Also, do not use aluminium foil to protect the top during use.

Make sure pots do not protrude over the edges of the cooktop and that they are

centrally positioned on the rings in order to obtain lower gas consumption.

Do not place unstable or deformed pots on the rings: they could tip over or spill

their contents, causing accidents.

Pots must not enter the control zone.

It is advisable to use cast iron recipients or steak plates only on the rear burners,

so as not to damage the electronic lighting components.

Mainteinance and Cleaning

The Hob Top

z Regularly wipe over the hob top using a soft cloth well wrung out in warm water to

which a little wasing up liquid has been added. Avoid the use of the following:

- household detergent and bleaches;

- impregnated pads unsuitable for non-stick saucepans;

- steel wool pads;

- bath/sink stain removers.

z Should the hob top become heavily soiled, the following products are recommended:

- For stainless steel hobs use a proprietary stainless steel cleaner.

- For other hobs use Hob Brite or Bar Keepers Friend.

z Do not leave acid or alkaline substances (e.g. vinegar, salt, lemon juice, etc.) on the

cooktop.

If scratches or cracks are noticed, disconnect the appliance from the electrical

supply to avoid the risk of electric shock and call your nearest Service Force

Centre.

The burners

z The burner caps and crowns can be removed for cleaning.

z Wash the burners taps and crowns using hot soapy water, and remove marks with a

mild paste cleaner. A well moistened soap impregnated steel wool pad can be used

with caution, if the marks are particularly difficult to remove.

z After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry with a soft cloth.

z Frequently wash the "caps" and the "crowns" (Fig 1 page 7 - A and B) with hot soapy

water, carefully taking away any built-up of food.

After a thorough cleaning, refit the crown in its correct position on the burner.

The Ignition electrode

The electric ignition is obtained through a ceramic electrode with a metal electrode

(Fig. 1 page 7- C). Keep these components very clean, to avoid difficult lighting, and check

that the burner crown holes (Fig. 1 page 7 - B) are not obstructed.

Before any maintenance or cleaning can be carried out, you must DISCONNECT

the hob from the electricity supply.

The hob is best cleaned whilst it is still warm, as spillage can be removed more

easily than if it is left to cool.

This appliance cannot be cleaned with steam or with a steam cleaning machine.

YES

The pan supports

To ensure a better cleaning, pan supports

can be removed from the hob. To keep the

pan supports in the correct position, they

are mounted on metal pins located in the

back of the hob. Lift up the pan suports

keeping them in horizontal position as

shown in Fig.2.

Avoid lifting the pan supports at an

angle, as this will put strain on the

metal pins. This may damage the

pins and cause them to break.

Wash the pan supports using hot soapy water.

If necessary, a paste cleaner or a soap

impregnated steelwool pad can be used with

caution.

The pan supports are not dishwasher

proof; they must be washed by hand.

After cleaning, be sure to wipe dry

with a soft cloth. Take care when

drying them as the enamelling process

occasionally leaves rough edges. If

necessary, remove stubborn stains

using a paste cleaner.

After cleaning, make sure that the pan

supports are correctly positioned.

Pay attention when placing the pan

supports back on their position, in

order to avoid scratching the glass

hob top.

Proper arrangements must be taken in designing

the furniture unit, in order to avoid any contact

with the bottom of the hob which can be heated

when it is operated. The recommended solution is

shown in diagram 3.

The panel fitted under the hob ("a") should be

easily removable to allow easy access if technical

assistance is needed. The space behind the kitchen

unit ("b") can be used for connections.

Building In

Electrical Connections

Any electrical work required to install this hob should be carried out by a qualified

electrician or competent person, in accordance with the current regulations.

THIS HOB MUST BE EARTHED.

The manufacturer declines any liability should these safety measures not be observed.

This hob is designed to be connected to a 230 V 50 Hz AC electrical supply.

Before switching on, make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated

on the hob rating plate. The rating plate is located on the bottom of the hob. A copy is

attached on the back cover of this book.

The hob is supplied with a 3 core flexible supply cord incorporating a 3 amp plug fitted. In

the event of having to change the fuse, a 3 amp ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse must be

used.

Should the plug need to be replaced for any reason, the wires in the mains lead are

coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

1) Connect the green and yellow (earth) wire

to the terminal in the plug which is
